This song is the result of a peculiarly 21st Century collaboration between two legendary artists: Matt Malley, perhaps best known for his work with Counting Crows, and Jon Anderson, perhaps best known as the singer with Yes. The peculiar thing about this collaboration is that, although it sounds for all the world as if the two artists got together late one night and composed it around the piano, it didnt happen like that at all. In fact, Matt Malley sent the instrumental to Jon Anderson over the internet and the collaboration went from there. Peculiarly, they hadnt even met in the flesh by the time the record was finished. This is a charity, download only single. “Not only am I a fan of Jons voice but I’m a fan of his fearless spiritual outlook which appears in all of his music. A mutual friend said we should meet and got us in touch and after talking a little, Jon said, So send some music! - so I had a cup of my best Darjeeling tea, went into my studio and came up with the instrumental arrangement that you hear on Family Circle. I sent the file up to Jon and it came back with his marvelous voice, lyrics…everything that brought the song to becoming fully realized.” - Matt Malley
